Issue

Issue:
On certain vehicles, the seat belt buckle for the second-row middle seat may be pushed into the gap between the vehicle body and the seat cushion. If this happens, the seat occupant would not be able to latch the seat belt.

Safety Risk:
Being unable to latch your seat belt can increase the risk of injury in a crash.

Corrective Actions:
Mercedes-Benz will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your vehicle to a dealer to adjust the positioning of the second-row middle seat belt buckle.
Note: Passengers should hold the seat belt buckle with one hand when fastening the seat belt.
